Gold City Reunion - featuring fathers and sons on Glory Road

This is from the Memphis Quartet Show 2014. Singers are Jay and Johnny Parrack, Jonathan and Jordan Wilburn, Mark and Nick Trammell and Tim and Danny Riley. It just doesn't get much more special than this!!

[@heathertews7613]

Favourite Tenor Jay Parrack and his Father Johnny Parrack and Favourite Baritone Mark Trammell and his Son Nick Trammell and Favourite Lead Singer Jonathan Wilburn and his Son Jordan Wilburn and Favourite Bass Singers Tim Riley and his Son Danny the Best every such Harmony and such a Blessing ♥️

[@cfife1924]

Johnny doesn't struggle at all to hit the real high notes. His voice is still so smooth.

[@whommee]

Johnny Parrack was and is the best quartet tenor of all time, The Best Period.

[@cwynt9319]

These young men are such mirror images of their Dads.. This is beautiful!!!

[@markdrennen6888]

Johnny and Jay Parrack, two of the greatest tenors in gospel music.

[@johnniedeans5906]

Mark Drennen earl tv

[@bjsc67]

What a combination..Jay Parrack and his Dad! Never heard two tenors that are better than they are.

[@hwdwll8774]

I think his dad still owns the top spot. Another great tenor: Doyle Harper, formerly with the Dixie Echoes.

[@randybock82]

Johnny gave me goosebumps when he hit the high note

[@emperorgluteusmaximus7069]

To any unbelievers watching this who say Christians don't have any fun, TAKE THAT!!!

[@VictoriaFlyinVFarms]

Exactly. When Jay Parrack put his foot in his mouth I bursted our laughing to the point of coughing!!!

[@jambisket9412]

Johnny Parrack. A true gift. Thank you Jesus!!

[@TheJohndeere212]

I love it! Watching fathers and sons singing together. I kept watching it over again.

[@hwdwll8774]

WOW! I,ve never heard a Tenor that can get up there that high as the Older guy did. Very Good.

[@1954terry1954]

***** 'the older guy' is one of the best tenors who ever sang gospel music.....find some old Kingsmen videos on YT, you'll hear what I mean.....

[@teaddison]

That is what you call a God-given talent, a naturally gifted tenor!!!!

[@shagnasty3004]

1954terry1954 Jay can get up there also, maybe even a tad higher.

[@assievanderwesthuizen6314]

@@1954terry1954 Yes! For instance at kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3-lnq2QhrOZe5o

[@yepyepuhhuhuhhuh3999]

He's the OG on this song.

[@flaggkort]

Next to Archie Watkins he is my favorite tenor of all time. I can't believe he can still hit those notes and sound so good.

[@cynthiaparris7549]

I love this song. It reminds me of my Dear SISTER n CHRIST that went to be with the LORD this week. We use to sing this in church together her and another lady and I. She s safe with JESUS now free from sickness and pain. Rest easy my dear friend Donna Sapp. I love you and I'll see you soon. ❤

[@joeymauro7717]

I can't believe he can still hit those notes. Amazing!

[@dianegriffin8320]

ALL I CAN SAY IS ..WOW!!!WOW!!!NEVER TIRE OF HEARING GOLD CITY. KEEP SINGING GOD,S PRAISES

[@gloriataylor7744]

Johnny is still as good as when he sang with the Kingsmen. I believe he still is higher Jay.

[@nicgordic8077]

From Australia, Johnny’s still got it ! I have the Kingmen album from the early 70’s ! It was live and I absolutely loved this song! Thanks for the memories that have kept me loving Jesus my lord and Saviour!

[@dolphinfan200013]

Wow! Johnny is still as great as ever!

[@daniellehoyte1820]

wow, this is the first time I've heard Nick sounding somewhat like his dad. Mark deserved that handshake lol.

[@kathyhooper556]

I can listen to this one over over! So glad it got recorded

[@bettyroos3620]

OUTSTANDING! What a joy to listen to and watch.

[@GlynRobinson]

wish Johnny would go back on the road. it is a demanding job, but oh boy what a blessing it would be!

[@kennystrickland9387]

Don't know why I haven't seen this before. That was awesome to hear and fun to watch.

[@jdscovers356]

That moment when the dad's schooled the sons on how it's done

[@TheShospitali]

Good idea Mark Trammell, I enjoyed that.

[@bjsc67]

Everytime I listen to this, it gets better!

[@maverickdh62]

The dad's need to record an album! To borrow a phrase from the great George Younce ,ya'll ought a get you a bus and hit the road!

[@markdayoc3907]

The Mighty Kingsmen; what a quartet!

[@papalilburn]

PTL! That's the way gospel should be done!

[@carolynjfrazier9558]

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS

That is AWESOME! So glad you were there to capture this special moment. Jay is hilarious!

[@assievanderwesthuizen6314]

Thank you so much for posting this! Marvellous to experience Johnny Parrack still performing those amazing high notes just the way he did it more than 20 years ago when he was one of the success stories in the famous Kings Quartet!

[@neldajohnson6879]

[@tinashemachimbidza3504]

wow awesome Gold City.

[@waynebrock6649]

Thank you Diana Brantley for the hilarious video of the father and son moment. I love it so much.

[@DinanaSN]

It's one of my all-time favorites! I was really hoping to catch the crowd's reaction as well as the singers. It was a thrill to be there for that moment.

[@gimmedatstick]

Goosebumps! Goosebumps!!!!!

[@joyr36]

The daddy's showed the young'un's how it's done on that song. I liked both groups.

[@EnchiladaMan360]

They should do this song again, only have Tim Riley sing tenor lol.

[@frankhunt6025]

Or Squeaky!

[@yescandles]

One of the best ever!

[@papalilburn]

[@johntabler349]

Johnny definitely still has it! "Jay your good but you ain't that good" Mark and Nick Trammel sound so much alike i might not be able to tell one from the other on a recording!

[@aaronyoung3075]

Idk Jay is pretty awesome

[@dogpreacherhall8208]

john tabler ..... yeah, that was set up to have Johnny show up Jay, but Jay can do the same thing (check out several recordings featuring his tenor). BUT .... Johnny is AWESOME !!!

[@pamelalanoue93]

Oh yes Jay IS that good

[@tabeakalimeris1230]

Lyrics: Is this road you're traveling Dark, deserted, or dim? Is there hope for tomorrow? Put your trust in Him. On this Glory Road I'm traveling, Many times I stumbled on my way. Praise the Lord, I'll soon be leaving To that land of perfect peace and endless day. I can see the lights of home; I can see Him on His throne. And I'm too near to turn back now, Oh praise the Lord, I'm Heaven bound. When my journey here shall end I'll say goodbye to this world of friends. In that fair land, I'll take my stand; It's good to be on this road for Glory Land. Oh I can see the lights of home; I can see Him on His throne. And I'm too near to turn back now, Oh praise the Lord, I'm Heaven bound. When my journey here shall end I'll say goodbye to this world of friends. In that fair land, I'll take my stand; It's good to be on this road for glory, On this road for glory,

Where was this? I live in Memphis and do not ever see the old quartet Gospel singers.

[@DinanaSN]

The Memphis Quartet Show is held every year and is coming up June 21, 2023. See their website - www.quartetshow.com/

[@chuckkrafft7168]

This is a fun video. All the men are great singers although Danny Riley, who is more of a baritone had to try to sing Tim's parts in that one verse. I really like Jonathan Wilburn. I'm surprised he doesn't get consideration as one of the all time bests (although I admit I'm a newbie to posting on these types of videos and may just not be aware of it.)

[@montelee8244]

You are 100% correct to many are not recognized like i think they should be..

[@keaganburk3789]

The blonde one is Jay?

[@DinanaSN]

That's right!

[@hamses75]

legal JESUS

[@TravisMSimpson]

Danny as a forced bass. not gonna work.

[@TheSoutherngospelman]

I have heard Danny sound check for Tim's Mic, and he can hit bass notes haha just not like his Dad

[@Tractorhap]

Horse playing and gospel singing do not mix.
